Mauritania–Senegal Border
The Mauritania–Senegal border is 742 km (461 m) in length and runs from the Atlantic Ocean in the west along the Senegal River to the tripoint with Mali in the east. Description The border starts in the west at the Atlantic coast and then goes east, crossing the Langue de Barbarie spit, and then veers north, utilising the Marigot de Mambatio, before reaching the Senegal river. The border then follows this river eastwards in a broad arc, terminating at the Mali tripoint at the Senegal/ Falémé confluence. History France had begun settling on the coasts of modern Mauritania and Senegal in the 17th-18th centuries, gradually extended their rule further inland as far as modern Mali during the 1850s-80s. As a result of the ‘Scramble for Africa’ in the 1880s, France gained control the upper valley of the Niger River (roughly equivalent to the areas of modern Mali and Niger). France occupied this area in 1900, followed by Mauritania in 1903–04. Mali (then referred to as Fr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
